Daniel Black

Daniel, a Silicon Valley native, is often referred to as an entrepreneurial rebel for choosing to launch his retail technology company “Glass-Media” in Dallas, Texas.

Since moving to Dallas in 2013, Daniel has quickly become an integral part of the startup community/ecosystem. In February 2015, Daniel was co-featured on the cover of “D CEO Magazine” in an
article entitled “The New Faces of Dallas Tech.” Later that year, he was named a finalist for the Tech Titans – Emerging Company CEO Award and was honored in the Tech Titans Gala. Daniel is a founding member of the Forbes Dallas Business Council.

Daniel is a firm believer in giving back. He is a mentor at a local, leading venture accelerator and remains actively involved with the Dallas Entrepreneurial Center and various other entrepreneurial organizations throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

Daniel attributes much of his success to the education he received at Claremont McKenna College. He graduated with a dual major in Economics/Government and completed the Leadership Studies Sequence. To date, Daniel remains involved with the College’s Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE) and was selected as a Kravis Leadership Fellow.
